mySortimo graphics – With free professional data check for your van wraps

Optimal surfaces for applying van wraps are side surfaces such as vehicle doors, bonnets or the rear area. In principle, a sense of proportion is always required when choosing the surface to be applied. Because areas on the bodywork that appear overloaded turn the aesthetic and advertising effect into its opposite. Your light commercial vehicle is more like an advertising pillar, a clear message or information transfer to your company or business is thwarted.

So less is more - but what does it matter for van wraps? For one thing: When choosing adhesive films, pay attention to structure and clarity. Similar to a business card, van wraps is only about three important pieces of information. Who you are, what service you offer and how to reach you (telephone number and/or internet address). In terms of content, this does not exclude abbreviations; crisp claims and concise lists can be used to emphasise service and scope of services. Not to be forgotten is - analogous to a business card - the design component. If you want to be seen, it is less about content than about colours, logo and design. Do you have a company logo? Great. Then use it to design your vehicle stickers. Being seen always has something to do with boundaries. Only with the right interplay of design and content can you create the actual advertising effect that counts. If you are undecided, you can observe the vehicle lettering of (competing) companies in daily traffic. What stands out? Which designs have the necessary appeal? Which lettering is suitable for your vehicle paintwork?

So use these considerations and impressions before you design and order logos, graphics and lettering with the online configurator of mySortimo.de.

If you are inexperienced in design matters, you can use ready-made templates in our online configurator and make the individualisations that are convenient for you. What you select, adapt or change can be easily followed on a 3D model. As mentioned, your specific vehicle always forms the basis for your personal lettering configurator.

We at Sortimo have thought of such eventualities and, in addition to the creation of designs, we also offer practical advice on visually appealing positioning, such as the function of horizontal and vertical centring for accurate results.

Do you have questions about your current configuration process? The Sortimo Customer Service Centre is also available to help you with current designs for labelling. Simply save your draft in the "My vehicles" area under your vehicle model and formulate your request in the tab "Write support request". We will look at your planned van wraps, contact you and, if necessary, adapt your lettering on the car. Are you then satisfied? Then we will gladly take over the printing of the films and the shipping.

​​​​​​​The advantage of car wraps over conventional print advertising measures is primarily in the long-term perspective. You pay once for a service and can achieve an advertising effect over a long period of time. Sortimo's quality guarantees long-lasting branding with stickers - even when the weather is very bad, for example when driving overland or on the motorway. The advertising effect is not only static and location- or time-dependent as with posters or advertisements, but is basically always visible locally and regionally when field staff is on duty or customers are visiting. This marks the added value of Sortimo's van wraping. Interested in mobile advertising for the next few years? Then get started with our online configurator!

Foil wrappings can now be designed and produced easily online using the mySortimo graphics configurator. This means that you do not have to contact a design studio or creative agency directly to have a lettering designed. mySortimo graphics therefore offers online configurators for the creation of lettering, with which you can individually implement content, lettering and design ideas. There is also the option of uploading your own company logo and integrating it into the van wraps. Full-service providers such as Sortimo will also take care of printing the film or sticker and shipping.

The costs depend on the size of the films. A standard template from mySortimo graphics for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2006 3665 Standard H1 vehicle model, for example, costs around 280 euros including the wraping. The scope of services includes the informative basics: Company name, telephone number and website address are clearly visible on the driver and passenger side, and finally the full address of your company on the rear. If you attach importance to corporate design guidelines with larger graphics also in field service or customer contact, it will naturally be more expensive. For the same Sprinter model with three company logos and ten information lines of different sizes (company name, web address, claims and address), you will pay between 600 and 700 euros, depending on the colour of the letters and the font size - here too, the service of applying stickers is already included. The easiest way to determine the costs for van wraps is to use Sortimo's intuitive online configurator. You can select your company car and insert, scale and colour in lettering, logos or even pictures.

Not every surface is suitable for foiling. Newly lacquered surfaces should not be coated. If you have a new car, you should wait one to two months for lettering, as the paint on new cars must first outgas. Even a nano-sealed paint surface should not be provided with van wraps at first.

If you want to make your transporter commercial, you should use areas without transitions. Sortimo's online configurator helps you to create wraps, logos and designs that fit perfectly because this tool contains all common vehicle models including the surface structure of the bodywork. In practice this means that the Sortimo configurator gives you tips on the correct positioning of van wraps. This helps you avoid costly mistakes. If you still have questions about vehicle labelling you can simply contact Sortimo customer service.

In principle, this question also depends heavily on vehicle care, UV exposure or mechanical impact. And on how precisely the lettering was applied. With sufficient care and a good film quality, you can count on 5 to 9 years of flawless lettering on the van wraps.

Sortimo's van wrapping is of high quality and - if correctly applied - will survive trips through the car wash without problems.
